Two days later, Tübingen Youth sat at the Lions Stadium to face the challenging Freiburg team.
Three hours before the game, the visiting team announced the roster for this game. After taking over the roster from Leonie, Mr. Kimbos breathed a sigh of relief: Freiburg gave up. All the main players were not here, all were substitutes.
Obviously, from ranking first at the beginning of the season to fifth now, Freiburg has felt strong pressure to upgrade. As a Bundesliga team last year, it was very difficult to keep the main lineup unchanged. The players are because
Only if you have confidence in the team to return to the Bundesliga can you reluctantly stay. In addition to maintaining the Bundesliga salaries of the main players, the club also has to bear economic losses from sponsors, the football market, etc.
Last year in the Bundesliga, I rashly wanted to fight on multiple fronts, which resulted in multiple defeats. This year in the Bundesliga, if I still want to go hand in hand, even if the bonuses are very generous every time I advance to the German Cup, I can't persist. Returning to the Bundesliga is the best option.
The main mission of the club.
What's more, in the German Cup, I met the young people from Tübingen who knew nothing about the world. No matter whether they collapsed in the future, at least now... they couldn't beat them!
The World Cup silver boots are not played seriously!
In fact, Volker still didn't study Tübingen thoroughly enough. With a cunning leader like Wang Ai and a ten thousand-year-old fairy like Xu Genbao, the club culture and team temperament are very different from traditional German teams.
In the German football world that emphasizes blood and passion, the young man from Tübingen is an uncle who disguises himself as a middle school boy and shouts loud slogans, but in fact it is all conspiracy behind the scenes.
It’s not that Wang Ai doesn’t want to play seriously, it’s that he can’t run anymore. Since returning to the team at the end of October, the team has played five league games, three UEFA Cup games, and two German Cup games, averaging one game every three days. However, Wang Ai due to his previous
He was a little injured and only participated in eight of the games, but he didn't miss a game in the middle. The weak bench lineup has almost no substitutions, so Bai Guanghai, Ozil, Per Mertesacker, Wang Ai, Boateng and other absolute main players
Their physical fitness has long since reached its bottom. Even Chen Yang and Zhang Yonghai are the same, but Luo Tongliang, the iron man, is not having much trouble.
But after being infected by Wang Ai's cunning style, the whole team pretended to be fine. In front of outsiders, even if they couldn't stand up, they still had to smile. As a team in a university town, they have the best team in the world.
The football team with the highest average academic level in Germany is very effective in recruiting people once it changes its thinking.
Therefore, when the Freiburg team reluctantly gave up this round of the German Cup, the Tübingen youth ushered in a difficult rotation. Except for Luo Tongliang, all other main players rested. Even Ozil and Merte
Sack, Zhang Yonghai, and Chen Yang were not even included in the roster, but were sitting in the stands.
Mr. Jinbosi was also afraid of capsizing in the gutter, so he kept Wang Ai, the most stable attacker who could change the score at critical moments, in the substitute lineup, and added Bai Guanghai, the fulcrum of the forward line and the most efficient forward in Bundesliga B2.
He stayed on the bench, and finally kept Boateng, who was physically fit.
The Freiburg team's bench is far stronger than the Tübingen youth team.
Tübingen Youth's own youth training products are far from mature. One-third of the so-called substitute lineup is old guys with a vicissitudes of life, and two-thirds are the main players from the amateur team left over from the Kugel era.
The level is very different from the Bundesliga 2.
Therefore, after the first half, facing a 0:3 deficit, Xu Genbao called Wang Ai out in the locker room.
Do we still want this game? In other words, do we still want the German Cup? It is still only the first half of the season. In the second half of the season, the opponents in the two cup competitions will become stronger and stronger, and the competition will become more and more difficult.
, what should we do? Will we achieve nothing if we advance on three fronts simultaneously?
A few minutes later, the two returned to the locker room and announced their decision: In the second half, Wang Ai, Bai Guanghai, and Boateng will play!
The decision of the club and coaching staff immediately attracted cheers from the players!
Even if you are very tired, you are still willing to follow a team that keeps fighting spirit. Besides, there are bonuses for substitutes. The further you go, the better, right?
In the second half, the visiting team coach Walker on the bench cast a playful glance at the home team. He didn’t want to win this game, otherwise he wouldn’t have had a full bench. He didn’t expect the opponent’s bench to be so weak, but he was unwilling to do so.
, can you come back from three goals behind?
It's a pity. If we had seen this huge weakness of the Tubingen youth earlier, maybe... there would be no good solution!
With an indifferent attitude, Walker observed the progress of the game between the two sides.
He was surprised to find that the winger Dr. Wang stood on the front midfielder, and together with the forward "Stuka", the defensive midfielder Barbarian, and the defender Luo, they formed a main lineup that ran through the center line, obviously giving up the two wings.
Lu's assault turned the game into a head-on fight.
Although he was not in good physical condition, he had rested for two days after all, and it was no problem to stick to the half-court ball. Bai Guanghai, who was in good condition, caught an overhead pass from Wang Ai at the beginning of the second half and scored with a header. Immediately afterwards, Luo Tongliang
Breaking through with the ball, he hit again with a long-range shot that was no less violent than Carlos. Just after the two of them fully attracted each other's attention, Wang Ai dribbled the ball into the penalty area and faced three or four players on his own.
After repeatedly moving around in a very small space, he finally managed to get a good angle and succeeded in a shot easily.
Just 10 minutes into the second half, Tübingen Youth equalized the score.
Walker sat down on the chair and scratched his scalp. This is how these Chinese people go all out. It's really scary! He looked back at the team members he brought with him. They were all prepared in case of injury.
Or maybe it was used after the physical fitness declined. It doesn’t matter whoever replaces it now.
After equalizing the score, the Tübingen youth slowed down their pace and fought with all their strength. Wang Ai and the other three didn't have much energy anymore. In the next twenty minutes, neither side launched a major attack, and the situation was basically stable.
In the last ten minutes of the game, Boateng suddenly signaled to Wang Ai that he wanted to play a white knight. Wang Ai was naturally happy to do so. In a sudden attack, Wang Ai used his flexible foot skills to attract many Freiburg players.
After receiving attention, he made a wonderful pass through the crotch and gave Boateng a single shot.
The "Barbarian" calmly pushed the ball and scored his first goal in half a season.
With one side willing to give up and the other willing to win, the score of 4:3 was maintained until the end. In two games in three days, the Tübingen youth achieved a strong championship competition against last year's Bundesliga team and this year's Bundesliga team.
The winner - the Freiburg team's double play. As a result, they continued to maintain their forward posture on the three fronts of the league, German Cup and UEFA Cup despite their shaky physical fitness.
